    That 'Excellent shrinking algorithm' is DVDShrink's. When Mr. Shrink came back to work on Shrink it was to basically get all his old friends to help in improving Shrink. The result was the AEC Quality Enhancements which made Shrink a major player again. All this then went into Nero Recode, but only at the default 'Sharp' setting. This little bit of software will allow Recode users the full benefit of the AEC enhancements.

    I don't disagree with you, is just that you missed one very important detail, an ingredient that needs to be present in my algorithm:as close to being free as possible!
    Recode/CloneDVD+AnyDVD YES!Great combo! Kudos to all users!Except, I don't care to pay for AnyDVD at this point, which means I cannot "1 Click" it, I go the long(er) route, ripping to HDD and then shrinking...Most of the time is probably a matter of a couple of extra minutes, maybe even less than some people spend doing the "1 Click", as I only do "Movie Only".
    If I backup a movie and maybe watch it a second time in a year or two, how often am I gonna watch the extras?!! So, it boils down to prefferences. Mine is Free Sofware.

    Do you mean the disc you are burning to or the one you are making a backup of?

    Well, if you're burning a blockbuster DVD, how do you know what kind of dvd is it? DVD9 or DVD5. In addition, when I go out and buy blank dvds, i only saw the 4.7 Gig and never seen DVD9 (7 gig right?)

    Most of the new movies are too big to fit on a DVD5 , with all the extras and junk. You might be able to find an older movie that is DVD5.
    When you go and buy DVDs(Best Buy for example), you will see DVD+/- R, and DVD+/-R DL(DVD9).Or, thet could be re-writable, DVD+RW (DL)

    What an appropriate username you have there; i'd politely suggest you stop posting and instead read the Forum Rules. No Rent & Burn discussions here at Afterdawn.

    Put in your drive, go to My Computer and look to the right of your drive under Total Size.

    I have been having similar problems when backing up DVD's with ImgBurn and DVD Shrink. After I compress the files, I use ImgBurn to burn the files. However, when I stick the DVD into a player or use my laptop to play the DVD's, I can only access the first 30 mins of video... all the rest of the video has dissapeared though the menu is in full working order. HELP!!!

    I don't see how that's similar at all. My movies work.
